Flowers.....

So on the Friday before Valentine’s I get 2 bouquets of flowers delivered at work.

Conversation with the manchild yesterday (on the phone as I was coming home from work)…..

Manchild: Mother…

Me: Yes

Manchild: from a son to his mother, will you do me a solid?

Me (skeptical at this point): Ummm what?

Manchild: Well, you got flowers today, and you have ENOUGH flowers so…….

Me: So you want to take my flowers?!?

Manchild: Yes!

Me (not knowing the type of flowers I received): Well what do they look like?

Manchild: Orange and yellow and white

Me: Well let me think about it and see them when I get home

I get home – ROSES!  18 ROSES (assorted colors) and the boy wants to take MY flowers  to give to his little girlfriend – with whom, he has informed me, that he will be taking to the Prom in April.

Yes, after giving him a really hard time, I let him take them to his sweetheart.

Yep – I am MOTHER OF THE YEAR material – just go ahead and nominate me now (and its only February).

Just can't get along

There is just no getting along.  Nope.  None.  Can’t even do it.  I will admit, I did try once.  Ok maybe twice but the reality is – he walks around like he is Mr. Untouchable.  He can do whatever the hell he wants and get away with it.  And, he has on many levels, gotten away with it.

New years’s day – idiot starts blowing up my phone with text messages.  Cussing me.  Being belligerent.  Basically being the ass that he is.  Later that day I get an email.  A one liner. 

Subject: FYI

I have accepted a new job and will be moving out of state.  All contact information will remain the same. 

Annnnnnd then it clicked…….    Now IF he did made this choice on his own, then she has to quit to follow him OR find a job to transfer to in the same location (which looks suspicious if she does it really soon).  Either way…..he is going to be spending some time away from her – its only a matter of time before he starts cheating on her.   Now he gets to go do what he’s always done and she gets to be the one waiting at home for a cheater.  I find it amusing

Funny thing is, he wouldn’t tell me for the longest time where he was moving to.  I think it’s quite funny.  He has gone so far as to remove his “signature” from his email at work so I won’t find out.   But I knew it was only a matter of time before he would forget to remove the signature and so that day has come.  This week.   He is now living in St. Louis, MO!
